Amazon Advertised Call Of Duty Black Ops 2 And Then Promptly Took It Down, Activison Mad

Amazon France apparently advertised a product page for Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 and then quickly pulled it down according to Gameblog. We already know that Activision are set to release another instalment of the immensely popular Call of Duty franchise this year, but the publisher has yet to confirm the name or the setting.

When Gameblog published the news Activision stepped in and demanded they take the news article down and when the blog refused to comply Acitvision disinvited the site from a preview event for Transformers: Fall of Cybertron and canceled advertising campaigns it had with the website. I guess Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 is pretty much official then.

Nintendo Wii: Amazon Emailing To Say Monado (Xenoblade) Shipping Out On August 28th In US

“Monado: Beginning of the World”

Nintendo 3DS: Amazon Put The Cosmo Black Nintendo 3DS Back On Sale

You may have read that earlier today Amazon had pulled the Cosmo Black Nintendo 3DS from sale due to design issues with their current inventory. Well, you can now breathe a huge sigh of relief as the Cosmo Black Nintendo 3DS console is back on sale on Amazon. Good news for both Amazon and consumers.

“We received customer feedback that there may be an inventory issue with the Cosmo Black Nintendo 3DS. The integrity of the product is not under review. Customers are still able to purchase the Amazon.com offer of the Aqua Blue Nintendo 3DS, however the Amazon.com offer of [the] black Nintendo 3DS has been removed until the inventory issue is resolved. There is no problem with the Cosmo Black Nintendo 3DS units themselves. This is an internal inventory problem that was brought to our attention from customer feedback and we are looking into it and will resolve as soon as possible.” *Resolved*

Nintendo 3DS: Amazon Rep Reveals Why Amazon Has Temporarily Discontinued The Nintendo 3DS

Earlier today I reported that Amazon has temporarily discontinued sales of the Cosmo Black Nintendo 3DS. The product was highlighted by a ‘item under review’ message. Thankfully a member of Neogaf contacted an Amazon representative to find out why they have temporarily discontinued the product. Here’s the answer he was given:

The reason why this is under a review
The flip-screen is loose when its opened, please inform them that Nintendo has confirmed as long as the upper screen locks into place, the unit is within Nintendo’s design specification. Customers can call 1-800-255-3700
